A Preschool and Retirement Home Come Together and Change Everything

The Intergenerational Learning Center (ILC) is a childcare facility in Seattle that caters to infants to 5-year-olds. Unlike other preschools, this facility has a unique twist; it’s housed within a retirement home.

ILC creates a one of a kind environment that allows the preschool kids to interact with the elderly, teaching kids about dealing with aging and disability while allowing seniors to become kids again. It’s basically a very sweet win win situation.
